The following study is composed of verses from Daniel chaps. 7,8,9,11,12, about the Antichrist and organized under prevalent themes. Paragraphs are composed of verses simply cut and pasted with very little editing for grammar (changed to present or future tense) and punctuation. 99% of this document consists of verses directly out of the Berean Study Bible.

ANTICHRIST – TIME OF WRATH

"I will make known to you what will happen in the latter time of wrath, because it concerns the appointed time of the end." spoken by the angel Gabriel, who stands in the presence of God.

ORIGIN
The fourth beast is a fourth kingdom that will appear on the earth, and it is extremely terrifying—dreadful and extremely strong, with large iron teeth different from all the other kingdoms. It will devour the whole earth, trample it down, and crush it and trample underfoot whatever is left. It will devour and crush with iron teeth and bronze claws.

The beast has ten horns on its head which are ten kings who will rise from this kingdom. Suddenly a little one will come up; when the rebellion has reached its full measure, an insolent king, a despicable person will arise, he will come to the throne. His appearance will be more imposing and different than the others.

CRAFTINESS
He has eyes like those of a man, skilled in intrigue and he will seize the kingdom by intrigue. Through his craft and by his hand, he will cause deceit to prosper.

ARROGANCE
He has a mouth that speaks words of arrogance, and he will speak out against the Most High. In his own mind he will make himself great. He will magnify itself, even to the Prince of the host. He will even stand against the Prince of princes and will exalt and magnify himself above every god, and he will speak monstrous things against the God of gods. He will show no regard for the gods of his fathers, nor for the one desired by women, nor for any other god, because he will magnify himself above them all.

SUCCESS
This little horn will emerge and grow extensively toward the south and the east and toward the Beautiful Land. He will pitch his royal tents between the sea and the beautiful holy mountain. He will prosper and succeed in whatever he does, the king will do as he pleases. Through his craft and by his hand, he will cause deceit to prosper. He will be successful until the time of wrath is completed.

POWER
He will extend his power over many countries and gain control of the treasures of gold and silver and over all their riches. He will plot against the strongholds—but only for a time. He will honor a god of fortresses—a god his fathers did not know—with gold, silver, precious stones, and riches. His power will be great, but it will not be his own. He will cause terrible destruction and destroy the mighty men along with the holy people. In a time of peace, he will destroy many. He will attack the strongest fortresses with the help of a foreign god, his forces will rise up and desecrate the temple fortress. He will also invade the Beautiful Land, and many countries will fall. He will go out with great fury to destroy many and devote them to destruction.

TIME OF PEACE
He will confirm a covenant with many for one week. He will come in a time of peace and invade the richest provinces and do what his fathers and forefathers never did. He will lavish plunder, loot, and wealth on his followers.

TIME OF DISTRESS
There will be a time of distress, the likes of which will not have occurred from the beginning of nations until that time. It will be for a time, and times, and half a time. When the power of the holy people has finally been shattered, all these things will be completed.

BREAKING OF COVENANT
In the rebellion, the host and the daily sacrifice will be given over to the horn. He will fling truth to the ground and he will intend to change the appointed times and laws. After an alliance is made with him, he will act deceitfully. He will turn back and rage against the holy covenant and do damage. In the middle of the week he will put an end to sacrifice and offering, they will abolish the daily sacrifice and he will remove God´s daily sacrifice and overthrow the place of God´s sanctuary. The sanctuary will be surrendered. With flattery he will corrupt those who violate the covenant. He will return and show favor to those who forsake the holy covenant and will greatly honor those who acknowledge him, making them rulers over many and distributing the land for a price.

DESOLATION
Desolations have been decreed. There will be a rebellion that causes desolation. They will set up the abomination of desolation, on the wing of the temple will come the abomination that causes desolation.

WAR vs. SAINTS
The saints will be given into his hand for a time, and times, and half a time. The horn will grow as high as the host of heaven, and cast down some of the host and some of the stars to the earth, and trample them, the host will be trampled. This horn will wage war against the saints and prevail against them, he will oppress the saints of the Most High, he will destroy the holy people.

DESTRUCTION
Until the end there will be war, until the decreed destruction is poured out upon him. The court will convene and books opened, and his dominion will be taken away and completely destroyed forever. The beast will be slain, and its body destroyed and thrown into the blazing fire. The horn will be broken off, but not by human hands, he will meet his end with no one to help him.

KINGDOM OF GOD
The Ancient of Days will arrive and pronounce judgment in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time will come for them to possess the kingdom. At that time His people—everyone whose name is found written in the book—will be delivered. The sanctuary will be properly restored. Then the sovereignty, dominion, and greatness of the kingdoms under all of heaven will be given to the people, the saints of the Most High. Then the wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars forever and ever. His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all rulers will serve and obey Him. The saints of the Most High will receive the kingdom and possess it forever—yes, forever and ever.
